  The location is the only thing going for it. The food was terrible. Over done fish, fries instead of chips, peas done in the microwave and too hot to eat, stale bread. Good thing it's closing, hope the hotel guest get better food. Had a cider and it tasted metallic.

  Our first time staying at this premier inn. We had a family room. I was so impressed on the room clean and tidy . Also had a Seaview the room was huge. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Also had dinner and breakfast and again staff there were so helpful and polite. And food was very tasty and portion sizes were good . Also a bonus as so close to beach and shops .Highly recommended

  Premier Inn Paignton is a prime location for a beach break with many added bonuses including kayaking, paddleboarding, coasteering rentals/lessons from Goodrington seafront, which is also great for surfing and kite flying. With easy access to steam train & river cruises to Dartmouth (where you can enjoy the South Devon views) to Splashdown Quaywest waterpark perfect for family fun. The front of house reception staff were extremely friendly and attentive with great knowledge of the local area. They gladly answered all queries and were ammenable to all our requests. Nice comfy rooms with all the necessary amenities to make your stay comfortable. Good WiFi, lots of wardrobe space and suitable lighting for reading, dressing suitable for all the family. This hotel offers essential items to purchase e.g.toothpaste, toothbrushes etc at the front desk where a small donation is given to Great Ormond Street hospital. Great selection of continental and full english breakfast menu. Fresh fruits, selection of pastries, hot drink machines and some very helpful staff onsite to attend and cater to your needs. The service from the restaurant staff was helpful and friendly all members made our stay so comfortable that we will certainly return!

  Wonderful stay at Premier Inn Paignton! I’ve had a really lovely experience at Premier Inn Paignton. The hotel is very well maintained, and the customer service has been excellent throughout our stay. The rooms are clean and comfortable, and the breakfast has been beautifully prepared with plenty of tasty, well-made food. We also had dinner, which was absolutely fabulous! The environment is lovely and lively during the day, while at night it becomes quiet and peaceful, making it easy to relax and get a good night’s sleep. Overall, I’m very happy with our stay and would definitely recommend Premier Inn Paignton. I’ll certainly be coming back again next time! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

  Dreadful, no wonder it is closing down, such a shame. Wonderful location. Food choices were limited, the service was deadly slow, it took two hours from ordering to leaving. To be fair, the food was tasty, once it eventually arrived but lacking garnish and presentation. Literally dumped on a plate and sent out. Very disappointing.
